Originally conjectured unpublished by Grothendieck, then formulated precisely by Katz, the $p$-curvature conjecture is a local-global principle for algebraic differential equations. It is at present open, though various cases are known.…

The Grothendieck--Katz $p$-curvature conjecture predicts that an arithmetic differential equation whose reduction modulo $p$ has vanishing $p$-curvatures for {\em almost all} $p,$ has finite monodromy. It is known that it suffices to prove…

We investigate an analogue of the Grothendieck $p$-curvature conjecture, where the vanishing of the $p$-curvature is replaced by the stronger condition, that the module with connection mod $p$ underlies a $\mathcal{D}_X$-module structure.…

In this short note, we prove the equivalence of Grothendieck-Katz $p$-curvature Conjecture with Conjecture F in Ekedahl-Shepherd-Barron-Taylor. More precisely, we show that Conjecture F implies the $p$-curvature conjecture, and that the…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $p,$ and $f : X \to S$ a smooth proper morphism of smooth $k$-schemes. Katz's formula gives a relationship between the Kodaira--Spencer map of $f,$ and an invariant called the $p$-curvature of the…

The Grothendieck-Katz $p$-curvature conjecture is an analogue of the Hasse Principle for differential equations. It states that a set of arithmetic differential equations on a variety has finite monodromy if its $p$-curvature vanishes…

We prove the Gersten conjecture for $p$-adic \'etale Tate twists for a smooth scheme $X$ in mixed characteristic in the Nisnevich topology. Our main observation is that, while $p$-adic \'etale Tate twists are not $\mathbb A^1$-invariant,…

An irreducible integrable connection $(E,\nabla)$ on a smooth projective complex variety $X$ is called rigid if it gives rise to an isolated point of the corresponding moduli space $\mathcal{M}_{dR}(X)$. According to Simpson's motivicity…

We verify Curtis conjecture on a class of elements of ${_2\pi_*^s}$ that satisfy a certain factorisation property. To be more precise, suppose $f\in{_2\pi_n^s}$ pulls back to $g\in{_2\pi_n^s}P$ through the Kahn-Priddy map $\lambda:QP\to…

Let $X$ be a (projective, geometrically irreducible, nonsingular) algebraic curve of genus $g \ge 2$ defined over an algebraically closed field $K$ of odd characteristic $p$. Let $Aut(X)$ be the group of all automorphisms of $X$ which fix…

We study H^*(P), the mod p cohomology of a finite p--group P, viewed as an Out(P)--module. In particular, we study the conjecture, first considered by Martino and Priddy, that, if e_S in Z/p[Out(P)] is a primitive idempotent associated to…

We introduce a version of the P=W conjecture relating the Borel-Moore homology of the stack of representations of the fundamental group of a genus g Riemann surface with the Borel-Moore homology of the stack of degree zero semistable Higgs…

We develop an effective version of Kronecker's Theorem on the splitting of polynomials, based on asymptotic arguments proposed by the Chudnovsky brothers, coming from Hermite-Pad\'e approximation. In conjunction with Honda's proof of the…

A strong version of the quantization conjecture of Guillemin and Sternberg is proved. For a reductive group action on a smooth, compact, polarized variety (X,L), the cohomologies of L over the GIT quotient X // G equal the invariant part of…

We show that the mod $p$ cohomology of a simple Shimura variety treated in Harris-Taylor's book vanishes outside a certain nontrivial range after localizing at any non-Eisenstein ideal of the Hecke algebra. In cases of low dimensions, we…

For a smooth projective curve $X$ over $\mathbb C_p$ and any reductive group $G$, we show that the moduli stack of $G$-Higgs bundles on $X$ is a twist of the moduli stack of v-topological $G$-bundles on $X_v$ in a canonical way. We explain…

We prove that the homology groups of any connected reductive group over a field with coefficients in the Steinberg representation vanish in a range. The generalizes work of Ash-Putman-Sam on the classical split groups. We state a…

We prove that the effective cone of automorphic vector bundles on the Siegel modular variety of rank $n$ in characteristic $p$ at a place of good reduction is encoded by the stack of $G$-zips of Pink--Wedhorn--Ziegler. Specifically, we show…

In this paper we study the longstanding conjecture of whether there exists a noninner automorphism of order $p$ for a finite non-abelian $p$-group. We prove that if $G$ is a finite non-abelian $p$-group such that $G/Z(G)$ is powerful then…

Let E/Q be an elliptic curve and p be a prime number, and let G be the Galois group of the extension of Q obtained by adjoining the coordinates of the p-torsion points on E. We determine all cases when the Galois cohomology group H^1(G,…
